D8 Night

Aftermath – Lumosh may have survived the Mistress’ assault during season 2, but the island is still a place full of threats, displaced refugees, and people struggling to survive the decimation wrought by months of blight and unrest. A certain Graycastle was left stranded here in the wake of the events of the Clean-Up Crew arc. In “Aftermath,” he must be pretty desperate, because he seeks help from two newcomers: Blargh and Aaroog. Our new crew faces the island’s dangers as well as other pursuers that attempt to use the chaos of the island for their own benefit. Can they survive the aftermath? Find out in this short, premium arc that takes place in the world of our main campaign!   GM – Mike Blargh the Orc Paladin – Aimee Aaroog the Battlemooster Multiclass - Will   This Episode: “Friends with Advantages” Blargh, Aaroog, and Malach settle the score with the Rhino and some of the other powerful allies of Malach’s sister.

This chance encounter gives them that opportunity while also explaining a bit about how they came to know each other.

Our party of young monks continues their desperate battle with the Harbinger of Shadow and Flame along the switchback path that ascends the nearby mountain. Who will survive?

We’re back from our terribly long hiatus with a one shot! Our players take on the role of their monk’s Masters Callion, Aesri, Aerik, Kai, and Nightflower as they prepare themselves to do battle with the Ancient Green Dragon that Shea warned them was on its way to the Monastery of Arcas! Stay tuned for our next episode to see what unfolds for the Tomato Crew!

The monks finally reach the prison beneath the labyrinthine kobold dungeon, but will they find the true heir alive? More importantly, when a new threat appears, will they make it out intact themselves? Also, stayed tuned at the end of the episode, for a little off-topic Easter Egg as well as some hints about things to come as we near wrapping this arc and prepare for the next.

Our monks find ominous ancient remnants of a ritual chamber among the twisting, labyrinthine dungeon. Darkness creeps over their hope of finding the true heir that can save their monastery as they continue to be assailed by kobold traps and other, much older dangers, pushing their resourcefulness to its limits.

The party continues its descent into what has become a grueling, unforgiving first test for our fledgling party of monks. Will they discover what the Kobolds have done with Danvers or why the little critters are fighting tooth and nail to defend when they are usually so keen to strike and run away? Or will their first sanctioned mission be their last?

Our monk party delves into Wysdom’s dig site, which they quickly discover is overtaken by aggressive kobolds and other more dangerous foes.

On their way to covertly supply Guillfore's rebellion, Fable, Shae, Whik, Tobias, and Silhouette are waylaid by uncharacteristically active kobolds along the road to the Stonemark. More than just a harrowing attack, the desperation of the little lizard creatures points to something bigger brewing beneath the surface of Arcas.

A few months after the events of the previous episode, we revisit with Fable, Shea, Whik, and Silhouette as they are tasked with their first mission as graduates of the school of Arcas and Members of the Row. And of course, you can’t have a tomato baby without Tobias … who is … also there! Game-Mom’s Note: Our previous 4 episodes were from a one-shot on the Island of Arcas. We later went back and expanded the story because we had so much fun with the characters, so there may be some small incongruencies in continuity with names of NPCs and the like. We also bring them up to level 5 for this part of the adventure! Behind the Screens Fun-Fact: Oddly enough, we recorded the “Tomato Crew” arc around the same time we recorded the “Potato Crew arc” based on our scheduling. We also recorded the Specter One-Shot (coming soon) during this same time period.

Fable, Shea, Whik, Tobias, and Silhouette finish their exploration of the manor house and bring back their findings to their masters.

Join Will and his three kids (Zay, Ali, and Emmie) on adventure to discover what’s really going behind the scenes at Auntie Marlaine’s Spooky Automaton Theater! This special episode is family friendly and does take place in Volyanaya, the world of the main campaign, and helps explore a bit of the lore relevant to season 1 of D8 Night. Mostly, however, it’s just a fun adventure Will put together for his kids to have a good time playing a somewhat spooky D&D session together! We recorded this special last Halloween, but wanted to share it with all our listeners this year!

Fable, Shea, Whik, Tobias, and Silhouette continue their investigation of the local lord’s abandoned manor in their search for evidence to save the monastery. But, the group discovers that just because the manor is abandoned, it doesn’t mean they have the place to all to themselves!

Join us at the Monastery of Arcadia about 2 years before the main campaign, as we learn the backstory of some new PCs as they undertake their monk training and embark on their first adventure together. (This was supposed to be a one shot to introduce Ive's character for season 3, but everyone loved their characters so much that we expanded it into a short arc after we completed the one-shot). Fable, Shea, Whik, Tobias, and Silhouette celebrate Whik’s recent advancement to full member of the Ordered Row. Celebrations are cut short however, as they stumble across dire news that threatens the serenity of the monastery they call home. See https://www.d8nightpodcast.com/ for a few of Ive’s table sketches from this arc as well as for links to the homebrew races and feats that are featured!

Unbeknownst to them, similar battles are being fought beyond the Divine Bridges in the Outer Realms. How will things unfold? What effects will they have on the future of Volyanaya and the upcoming seasons of D8 Night? Well, since we don’t have a Wiki for the show, there’s only one way to find out!

Wellby, Maryna, and Callum have serious conversations during the dusk before waking Thüt and making their final trek to Caerrun. But, when they arrive they discover a desperate scene that makes them fear they may be too late.

Wellby, Maryna, and Thüt make their escape from the inferno that is the estate of Lord Montross. However, when they do get outside, they are met with much more resistance than they expected.

The goliath and the carriage horseWere walking cross the landThe road was wide from side to sideAnd the horse was in his hands“Mr. Wizard,” said the carriage horse“My back begins to acheI appreciate the brief respiteThat you’ve allowed for me to take.” “The time has come” the goliath said“To talk of other thingsOf gnolls and babes and potato sacksAnd carriages and kingsAnd while the king is boiling hotAnd my dreams full of eldritch thingsBut Kaloo, Kalay, we walk todayBeside carriages and kings!

Thüt teaches a master class in laying low.

Wellby, Maryna, and Thüt and lay low after their interesting masquerade in the posh part of town.

And it turned into a ballroom blitz And the girl in the corner said: "girl, I should warn ya" It'll turn into a ballroom blitz Ballroom blitz Ballroom blitz Ballroom blitz Ballroom blitz

It’s masquerade night for Wellby, Maryna, Thüt, and Brüx. While the nobles dance, the Potato Crew has a job to do, though a dance-floor encounter may throw a wrench in and gum up the whole works.

Wellby, Maryna, and Thüt try to navigate the Death Labyrinth they wandered into last episode. The labyrinth, of course, has other plans.

It’s a plan that’s never failed before. Let’s see how it works out for Wellby, Maryna, and Thüt this time though.

If I could read your mind, MarynaWhat a tale your thoughts could touchJust like a sad old story‘Bout losing something that meant so muchIn a manor dark or a hidden roomWith a dagger in its heartBut you know the ghost is youAnd you will never be set freeAs long as you’re that ghost, we can't see If I could read your mind, ThütWhat a tale your thoughts could tellJust like an eldritch storyThe kind that Lovecraft told so wellWhen you reach the part where the tentacles areThe hero won’t be meBecause heroes often failAnd we won't read that book againBecause the ending's just too hard to takeI never thought you could act this wayAnd I've got to say that I just don't get itYelling at old men at the docksBut the crew is gone and we just can’t get it backIf you could read my mind, ThütWhat a tale my thoughts could preachJust like an old time story'Bout a phantom walking on the beachIn an ocean dark or the waters deepWith chains upon my feetOur stories always endAnd if you read between the linesYou'll know that I'm just trying to understandWhy everybody diesI never thought things would be this wayAnd I've got to say that I just don't get itI don't know where I went wrongBut she is goneAnd I just can't get her back

If it hadn’t been for the Kraken-Eye JoeThey’d have gone back and then they’d knowWhere they had come from and where they should goBut where will they wash up, Kraken-Eye Joe?

In this episode ten-TACTULAR spectacular, the crew of the trashfire may be outmatched as they face an incredible threat summoned from the ocean depths.

Thüt returns and joins Wellby and Maryna in a grisly discovery and a high stakes nautical chase.

Players in this episode: Josh Smith in his first D&D session, 8-year old Isaiah Mayer, and Audio Engineer Aimee Mayer. Stay tuned next month for Part 2 of 5!

Maryna and Wellby find something worse than the desert— what they were looking for.

When the Trashfire makes anchor in Torbarhon, Maryna, Wellby, and a few crew members take the opportunity to get off their sea legs for a bit. However, mysterious disappearances in the little fishing town prompt the party to begin a dangerous trek.

Aboard the Trashfire, Thüt finds himself in the midst of one big sleep, but he’s not the only new crew member facing nightmares.

Thüt, Maryna, Wellby, and Talia confront Malach’s kidnappers in a knockdown, drag-out fight aboard the Redemption.

As the sea of trees and blighted beasts engulfs Raventree to the north, our heroes finally come face to face with the Mistress.

South of Raventree, the Mistress’ grove dominates the horizon, an endless sea of shambling trees that move rhythmically like a single beating heart. With the villagers’ defenses exhausted, our heroes have only bad options left to choose from. Lucky for them, bad decisions are sort of their specialty.

As the attacks on Raventree grow more calculated and intense, our heroes try to shore up their defenses and hold the line.
